Chapter 278: Ten Thousand Foot Divine Sense, Subtle Realm of Divine Sense! (First update)

Su Xing saw this and slightly frowned, murmuring:

"Damn, it should be that damned Zong’s Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique that predicted the danger in advance.”

"So that’s why he fled so quickly, right?”

Su Xing secretly cursed his miscalculation.

This damned Zong’s means of self-preservation were indeed top-notch. Su Xing just had a hint of killing intent, and that damned Zong immediately abandoned everything and ran away.

"It seems, if I want to kill that damned Zong… I must first learn this Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique!”

"There is a technique within the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique that shields heavenly secrets, which should be able to block that damned Zong’s crisis sense towards me…”

Su Xing murmured.

"But I don’t know to what level that damned Zong has cultivated the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique?”

Su Xing felt quite troubled at the moment, deciding to first comprehend this Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique.

He looked at the simulation panel.

[Knowing that you couldn’t kill that damned Zong in a short time, you decided to retreat for now, defecting to the Great Xia Capital with Luo Shuying.]

[You took out over a hundred thousand elixirs that you had accumulated over the years, creating many powerhouses for the Great Xia Military.]

[Next, you stayed in the capital, peacefully refining elixirs and studying secret techniques.]

[You temporarily gave up on the cultivation of the Sword Control Technique and started researching the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique instead.]

[Two more years passed in refining elixirs and cultivation.]

[In the fourth year, you used up all the herbs you had accumulated over the years, refining many elixirs.]

[Knowing that these elixirs would be sufficient to support Demon-Subduing Pass up to the twenty-fifth year, you focused solely on cultivation.]

[However, the cultivation of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique was more difficult than you imagined.]

[You had cultivated it for a full two years but still couldn’t get started.]

[This year, the range of your divine sense expanded to eight thousand zhang!]

[In the fifth year, to get started with the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique as soon as possible, you had to use The Great Wisdom in Foolishness talent, forcibly enhancing your comprehension.]

[Indeed, under the triple comprehension and wisdom bonus, your understanding of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique quickly improved, and you gradually got a grasp of the basics.]

[In the sixth year, you continued to visualize the Wishful Visualization Method in your mind every day, and your divine sense grew to eight thousand four hundred zhang this year!]

[But unfortunately, your understanding of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique remained at a basic level.]

[Faced with slow progress in comprehending the secret technique, all you could do was work harder to understand it more deeply!]

[Thus, another two years passed…]

[In the eighth year, your divine sense grew to eight thousand eight hundred zhang this year.]

[After six consecutive years of comprehension, your understanding of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique finally reached an entry-level.]

Seeing this, Su Xing felt a bit surprised.

"Is this Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique actually this difficult?”

"No wonder the records in this secret technique mentioned that only those with excellent comprehension could grasp this secret technique…”

"With a triple comprehension bonus from the Great Wisdom State… I took six years to barely understand it?”

For a moment, Su Xing began to doubt himself.

"Damn, is my comprehension really this bad?”

Su Xing grumbled with a face full of black lines.

But to be fair, Su Xing’s comprehension wasn’t considered bad; he could only be counted as having above-average talent.

It was just that this Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique was excessively difficult, requiring extremely high comprehension!

Probably only one in a million with exceptional comprehension could get started within five years, right?

"But… humph, I have the epiphany talent! When I have an epiphany… your Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique will be conquered sooner or later!”

Su Xing muttered unwillingly.

He looked at the simulation panel.

[After getting started with the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you gained some special abilities.]

[You could occasionally sense potential danger; when you were about to face danger, your heart would beat faster.]

[This effect was very similar to your Pro-toward-Fortune-and-Avoid-Doom talent…]

[At this point, you finally understood why that damned Zong could sense danger in advance.]

[You also understood why he could survive hundreds of years in the Xianwu copy world; with this talent, it was indeed an invincible survival skill.]

[Not knowing to what level that damned Zong had cultivated the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique, you cautiously decided not to seek him out rashly but continued to cultivate this secret technique instead.]

[In the ninth year, the range of your divine sense increased to nine thousand zhang.]

[But your comprehension of the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique was still at the entry level; you continued training hard and prayed for an epiphany.]

[In the monotonous cultivation, three more years passed in the blink of an eye.]

[In the twelfth year, your divine sense further expanded to nine thousand five hundred zhang this year!]

[With the excessive consumption of Soul Condensing Pills, your body accumulated a lot of pill toxins, occasionally causing auditory hallucinations.]

[But you didn’t mind and continued to observe the Wishful Visualization Method daily, training in the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling secret technique.]

[In the thirteenth year, your divine sense grew to nine thousand six hundred zhang.]

[As you increasingly observed the Diagram of Wishful Visualization, you noticed subtle changes in your divine sense.]

[Aside from a significant increase in the range of your divine sense, you began to sense the subtle changes in tiny things thousands of zhang away.]

[A thousand meters away, you could feel the patterns on a fly’s wings or the frequency of a butterfly’s wing flaps.]

[You felt joy in your heart, knowing you were not far from the second stage of divine sense, the Subtle Realm!]

[But what gave you a headache was that your progress with the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique remained slow; the years of training only made your crisis sense more sensitive.]

    A common thing that can be easy to overlook about why MC’s in these novels can seem so stupid is that the author might be bringing these up again more so because of the timescale of the stories original release making it unlikely readers remember certain details leading to things you read days apart being released months or years apart combine that with the very real possibility of MTL stripping any nuance from stuff like this and you get a story where the mc feels like a drooling idiot when binging them
